The correct statements are "Each orbit holds a fixed number of electrons" and "The n=1 orbit can only hold two electrons." According to the Bohr model, the maximum number of electrons that can occupy an orbit is given by 2n^2, where n is the number of the orbit. For instance, when n=1 it means 2n^2= 2(1)^2=2. This particular orbit can only hold up to two electrons. Even though the electrons can gain energy and move to higher orbits or electrons from higher orbits can lose energy and drop to the n=1 level, the energy level would not allow more electrons to enter the orbit once it is full. Again the octet rule, which states that atoms achieve stability by having 8 valence electrons, limits the maximum number of electrons that can be occupied by an orbit. The gain and loss of electrons is done to achieve the noble gas configuration and once that is reached no more electron can be added to an orbit

How is the motion of an object affected when a force acts on it?
Arada [10]

Newton's first law of motion is sometimes called the law of inertia. When the forces acting on an object are balanced, the object is either at rest or moving with a constant velocity. Unbalanced forces can cause an object to accelerate or decelerate. Unbalanced forces can also cause an object to change direction.

Hope that helps!

Explain your results: How can Earth’s gravity affect the water when the water isn’t actually touching the Earth? (2 pts) Do you
Levart [38]

Answer:

Because the Earth has so much gravity, it can hold water, land, and life in it's atmosphere.

(Not sure what beaker you are talking about, so sorry) But I don't think the moon's gravity would have an effect on a beaker of water because the Earth's gravity is much more than the moon's.

I think you would be able to feel a little bit of Earth's gravity  on the moon because the Earth's gravity pulled the moon into orbit, therefore, gravity on Earth my have some effect on the moon.

hope this helps!
